Exactly its more about patterns.  One pattern that I found pretty consistent is in heads up if I get an instant re-raise when there is a straight possibility on the board then about 75-90% of the time the other player has hit that straight. So, maybe I hit a pair or 2 pair and get instant re-raise then often I'll think he probably hit the straight simply because I've seen it so many times.

Again with players that bluff big they often raise small when they hit something big but players who value bet are just the opposite.  A small bet can be a stop bet (to stop you from betting), a value bet, a test bet (I hit something but not sure if it is good), or the "I hit something huge bet".

What I try to do is test people to see how they respond to various bets.  If I get a re-raise from a raise then that gives me an indication that next time with a big hand that I might want to try a re-raise to build a pot.  If someone is more likely to fold to a re-raise it tells me I should re-raise on a bluff... but I never know what they have so its just one factor.
